Answer:

The repetition of the words "cruel" and "cruelty" results in a manner of insistence and places a heavy emphasis on these characteristics deemed less detrimental than certain others (such as mercy).

This repetition also serves to counterpoise the negative connotations one may instinctively associate with the word "cruelty" and render it neutral. It brings a certain intensity to Machiavelli's tone.
